Project description:Little is known about the effects of high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity on resident colonic lamina propria (LP) macrophages (LPMs) function and metabolism. Here, we report that obesity and diabetes resulted in increased macrophage infiltration in the colon. These macrophages exhibited the residency phenotype CX3CR1hiMHCIIhi, and were CD4-TIM4-. During HFD, resident colonic LPM exhibited a lipid metabolism gene expression signature that overlapped that used to define lipid associated macrophages (LAMs). Via single cell RNA sequencing, we identified a sub-cluster of macrophages, increased in HFD, that were responsible for the LAM signature. Compared to other macrophages in the colon, these cells were characterized by elevated glycolysis, phagocytosis and efferocytosis signatures. CX3CR1hiMHCIIhi colonic resident LPMs had fewer lipid droplets (LD) and decreased triacylglycerol (TAG) content compared to equivalent cells in lean mice, and exhibited increased phagocytic capacity, suggesting that HFD induces adaptive responses in LPMs to limit bacterial translocation.

Project description:Long-term consumption of fatty foods is associated with obesity, macrophage activation and inflammation, metabolic imbalance, and a reduced lifespan. We took advantage of Drosophila genetics to investigate the role of macrophages and the pathway(s) that govern their response to dietary stress. Flies fed a lipid-rich diet presented with increased fat storage, systemic JAK-STAT activation, reduced insulin sensitivity and hyperglycaemia, and a shorter lifespan. Drosophila macrophages scavenged lipids and produced the type 1 cytokine upd3, in a scavenger-receptor (croquemort) and JNK-dependent manner. Genetic depletion of macrophages, or macrophage-specific silencing of upd3 decreased JAK-STAT activation and rescued insulin sensitivity and the lifespan of Drosophila, but did not decrease fat storage. NF-M-NM-:B signalling made no contribution to the phenotype observed. These results identify an evolutionarily conserved M-bM-^@M-^Xscavenger receptor-JNK-Type 1 cytokineM-bM-^@M-^Y cassette in macrophages, which controls glucose metabolism and reduces lifespan in Drosophila maintained on a lipid-rich diet via activation of the JAK-STAT pathway Long-term consumption of fatty foods is associated with obesity, macrophage activation and inflammation, metabolic imbalance, and a reduced lifespan.

Project description:Abnormalities in hepatic lipid metabolism are believed to play a critical role in the etiology of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Monoacylglycerol acyltransferase (MGAT) enzymes convert monoacylglycerol to diacylglycerol, which is the penultimate step in one pathway for triacylglycerol (TAG) synthesis. Hepatic expression of Mogat1, which encodes an MGAT enzyme, is increased in the livers of mice with hepatic steatosis and knocking down Mogat1 improves insulin sensitivity, but whether increased MGAT activity plays a role in the etiology of NASH is unclear. To examine the effects of knocking down Mogat1 in the liver on the development of NASH, C57BL/6 mice were placed on a diet containing high levels of trans fatty acids, fructose, and cholesterol (HTF-C diet) or a low fat control diet for 4 weeks. Mice were then injected with antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) to knockdown Mogat1 or a scrambled ASO control for 12 weeks while remaining on diet. HTF-C diet caused glucose intolerance, hepatic steatosis, and induced hepatic gene expression markers of inflammation, macrophage infiltration, and stellate cell activation. Mogat1 ASO treatment, which suppressed Mogat1 expression in liver, attenuated weight gain, improved glucose tolerance, and decreased hepatic TAG content compared to control ASO-treated mice on HTF-C chow. However, Mogat1 ASO treatment did not reduce hepatic DAG, cholesterol, or free fatty acid content, improve histologic measures of liver injury, or reduce expression of markers of stellate cell activation, liver inflammation, and injury. In conclusion, inhibition of hepatic Mogat1 in HTF-C diet-fed mice improves glucose tolerance and hepatic TAG accumulation without attenuating liver inflammation and injury. Total RNA obtained from liver of 4 control vs. 4 Mogat1 ASO treated higf-fat diet (HFD) fed mice.

Project description:When macrophages are activated by sensing bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), they greatly increase their motility, mRNA synthesis and protein production. Most of the ATP needed for these responses is derived from the uptake and catabolism of glucose, a relatively inefficient ATP source. Although the stimulated cells also increase their uptake of free fatty acids, they store a large fraction as triglycerides (TAG). We report here that both Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and TLR2 agonists stimulate prolonged TAG retention by primary murine and human macrophages. Agonist-induced TAG storage lasted at least 72-96 hrs in vitro and was associated with increases in fatty acid (FA) uptake, FA esterification, and FA incorporation into TAG; FA oxidation decreased. The results of expression and inhibitor studies support a prominent role for increases in long chain acyl CoA synthase 1 (ACSL1) and diacylglycerol acyltransferase-2 (DGAT2) during the sustained response to TLR2/4 activation; decreases in adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL, Pnpla2) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MgII) may also contribute. Stimulated murine macrophages that retained TAG carried out phagocytosis more effectively and were protected from saturated fatty acid-induced cell death (lipotoxicity). TLR agonist-induced TAG retention in macrophages is thus an active, sustained process that may have important adaptive functions. It may also contribute to the persistence of lipid-laden macrophages in infected tissues, host susceptibility to some microbial pathogens, and the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. RNA from macrophage loaded with Fatty Acids, stimulated with bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), or both compared to untreated controls (FA, LPS, FA+LPS, untreated). Replicates from 4 independent experiments.

Project description:The goal of the study is to use Next generation sequencing (RNA-seq) to study the underlying regulation of glycerol metabolism in mixed culture fermentation (glucose and glycerol) of Rhodosporidium toruloides. We sequenced the RNA from 4 different samples in the mixed culture (glucose and glycerol) with 2 replicates each. Transcriptional profiles showed that glycerol might be produced intracellularly and glycerol kinase (GUT1) and glycerol 3–phosphate dehydrogenase (GUT2) enzymes were not down-regulated in the presence of glucose at the transcriptional level. It also showed that this yeast has a different regulation compared to S.cerevisiae. Certain insights into lipid biosynthesis on these mixed cultures are provided at systems level. This analysis provides interesting targets for metabolic engineering in this organism growing on glucose and glycerol.

Project description:Knockout or inhibition of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) induces ferroptosis which has been proposed as a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer. Here we unexpectedly found that inducible knockout of GPX4 in tumor cells significantly promotes non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression in the autochthonous KrasLSL-G12D/+Lkb1fl/fl (KL) and KrasLSL-G12D/+Tp53fl/fl (KP) mouse models, whereas inducible overexpression of GPX4 in tumor cells had an opposite effect. Mechanistically, knockout of GPX4 in tumor cells results in the accumulation of triacylglycerol (TAG) that was stored in lipid droplets in tumor cells and the efflux of TAG that induces ferroptosis of macrophages in the tumor microenvironment (TME), thereby igniting an immunoinhibitory TME characterized by the dysfunction of anti-tumor T cells and the decrease of antigen-presenting macrophages. Consistently, treatment with liprostatin-1 or inducible overexpression of GPX4 in tumor cells significantly rescues the ferroptosis of macrophages and ignites the activation of T cells in the TME, thereby inhibiting NSCLC progression. These findings highlight a previously uncharacterized role of tumor cell-specific GPX4 in NSCLC progression by modulating TAG metabolism in the TME and provide potential therapeutic strategies for NSCLC.

Project description:Deletion of the glycerol channel aquaporin-9 (Aqp9) reduces postprandial blood glucose levels in leptin receptor deficient (db/db) obese mice on a C57BL/6×C57BLKS mixed genetic background. Furthermore, shRNA mediated reduction of Aqp9 expression reduces liver triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation in a diet induced rat model of obesity. The aim of this study was to investigate metabolic effects of Aqp9 deletion in coisogenic db/db mice of the C57BL/6 background. Aqp9wt db/db and Aqp9-/- db/db mice did not differ in body weight and liver TAG contents. On the C57BL/6 genetic background we observed elevated plasma glucose in Aqp9-/- db/db mice (+ 1.1 mM, life-time average) while plasma insulin concentration was reduced at time of death. Glucose levels changed similarly in pentobarbital anesthetized, glucagon challenged Aqp9wt db/db and Aqp9-/- db/db mice. Liver transcriptional profiling did not detect differential gene expression between genotypes. Metabolite profiling revealed a sex independent increase in plasma glycerol (+55%), glucose (+24%) and reduction in threonate (all at q<0.1) in Aqp9-/- db/db mice compared to controls. Metabolite profiling thus confirms a role of AQP9 in glycerol metabolism of obese C57BL/6 db/db mice. In this animal model of obesity Aqp9 gene deletion elevates plasma glucose and does not alleviate hepatosteatosis.

Project description:The objective of the study was to figure out the impact of LXR signaling on human macrophages. Primary human macrophages in an early differentiating and a mature differentiation state were treated with the LXR agonist T091317 for 4 and 24 h and transcriptome-wide expression analysis were performed. As LXRa is highly induced during macrophage differentiation and 68% of all LXRs targets change their expression during this process, we suggest that LXRs have essential functions in macrophage development. More than 238 genes are regulated in early as well as mature macrophages by activation of LXRs; most of them are up-regulated. LXRs administrate differentiation state specific as well as common macrophages functions related primarily to lipid homeostasis, immune response and cell fate. Interestingly, almost only genes related to lipid and cholesterol metabolism are overrepresented among early induced genes, whereas genes related to immune functions respond later, implying the existence of indirect mechanisms of control. Furthermore, in early differentiating macrophages cell proliferation and cell death associated genes are induced after 24 h of LXR activation, whereas in mature macrophages, showing high LXRa expression, the same functional cluster respond far earlier (4 h) after LXR ligand treatment. In conclusion, our data suggest that LXRs are modulators of macrophage differentiation, operating principally as positive transcriptional regulators of genes involved in lipid and cholesterol metabolism and by this indirectly influencing the immunophenotype of macrophages. CD14 positive cells of healthy donors were isolated by magnetic separation and differentiated in the presence of human serum to macrophages. At an early differentiating state (16 h after isolation) and at in mature differentiating state (day 11 after isolation) the cells were treated with the synthetical LXR agonist T091317 respective its solvent DMSO for 4 and 24 h. RNA was isolated and a whole genome microarray was performed.
